Dial 'R' for Murder?

Read this story line:

• Husband accuses wife of infidelity and may or may not believe it himself.
• Husband plans wife's murder, sets up contract killer to enter his house.
• Sets up phone call for wife to pick up while he is (seemingly) elsewhere and returning home.
• Wife picks up ringing phone, is attacked from behind by the contract killer who wants to strangle her.
• Struggle ensues and wife ends up killing contract killer with an implement that happened to be there.
• Husband returns home to find the killer killed.
  

Sounds like Dial M for Murder or its descendant A Perfect Murder? Sorry to disappoint, that was from last night's episode of the Tamil teleserial "Roja". Tonight, I am going back on my Journey to the Centre of the Earth, unless they have a copycat scene from a movie (how about Fight Club, Balaji?) I have not seen.
